I really like my water pillow.

I mean, your bed is home to tens of thousands of microscopic bugs as well. I’d rather not smell them.
AI is the new procedural generation, in that it will be touted as making the games more real and immersive but really only makes them boring and repetitive, thus stressing the importance of genuine creative handcrafting. I’m looking forward to smaller studios selling their games with a “no AI” pitch in a few years.
Also screw long term profitability, make the graph quickly go up by firing people to get your bonus, by the time it comes back to really bite the company in the ass, you will have golden-parachuted away already.
I mean, Larian is pretty much that. Instead of just doing Baldur’s Gate 4 although Hasbro fired all their contact people and probably would have urged Larian to rush a sequel, they are instead during an IP of their own next and refuse to go public and/or get bought.
When was the last really good game from EA and Bioware? Yeah.
There was already an outbreak of thousand year old Anthrax from thawed animal corpses in Siberia several years ago.
He did a TED talk in 2010 and there are several articles about him. Not much news in recent years, I guess he wasn’t very succesful in turning his motion control concept into a viable product. I interviewed him about eight years ago.
Shout out also to John Underkoffler who was the technical advisor on Minority Report (and later Iron Man). The gesture controls in that movie heavily inspired the first smartphones.
The only surprise is the inclusion of Galacta, daughter of Galactus. Talk about obscure. Wouldn’t the Grandmaster be a much more logical choice for the person controlling the battle arenas?
I fully expect Light No Fire to be a reskinned No Man’s Sky on a single planet with a fantasy coat of paint (and I look forward to it!), and all features they are still adding to NMS to be in LNF as well. Quite clever IMO.
Once the algae bloom from raised CO2 levels due to global warming leads to an increase of oxygen levels, there might be giant insects again.
Also, lying their asses off about what’s actually in the game just a few days before release.
Not for a considerable portion of the populace.
I really hope they’re going sci-fi. I can only replay the Mass Effect trilogy so many times.
Cat poop coffee is still the grossest food. Well, maybe this one cheese with live maggots jumping into your face while eating it has it beat.
Not quite, EU states are still sovereign nations.
He definitely thinks that, everything is zero sum for him.
Merkel had to explain eleven times to him that he can’t make trade agreements with Germany, only the whole EU. He probably couldn’t grasp the concept of mutual gain through cooperation.
There is a very cool sci-fi novel called Children of Time in which jumping spiders are accidentally uplifted and evolve into an intelligent species.
The author really missed out on writing “they scratched every surface, but they haven’t even scratched the surface.”
